I FUCKING HATE WINDOWS!!!!
-
So Vista doesn't work, so I chuck in a Win7 DVD, and run it. I chose upgrade. It says, go to this link and download SP1 first. I go to that link, and IE tells me I need to upgrade IE. I really fucking hate Windows and MSFT. All they produce is shit.

But like that rash, he keeps coming back. I have taken the route of NEVER answering anything of his, no mater how much he insults or provokes. Anything over the lien gets reported and that is it.
I love the irony that he calls himself Erudite!

I may be wrong, but you somehow called for it by answering with "Let me explain it in terms you understand"... I don't think Eric is that bad that you all seem to think. He's been trolling for sure about GW, but in the soapbox mainly, and even if sometimes still tainted with reminiscence of the past, the rest of his Lounge posts are not really abusive or controversial. At least, not worse than some of M.Dalek, if we have to take an example. Maybe you guys just could let go...

Fair enough. I could have worded it differently, but he had already called me stupid in a previous post so I wasn't trying to be polite. Perhaps I should have been.

I didn't give it much thought until I told him to stop the personal attacks and he went ahead and sent another one on a different thread. That is when I started reporting him for abuse.

He'll be back and if he is not abusive I will not be overly critical.

I'm on-line therefore I am. JimmyRopesLets get a few things straight: 1) You completely misunderstood what I wrote about Linux. I said it was more fun to work on, I didn't not call it 'shit hot' and nor am I an 'evangelist' which is what you said I am. That's why I called you stupid, because you jumped to the usual conclusion idiots make when discussing Linux and windows. 2) You then come at me with a load of patronising crap when clearly you have no idea just how little the kernel has changed since vista. 3) You then get all pissy when I point it out to you. 4) You then get my account deleted (about which I couldnt give a shit). All of which is so obvious other people point it out to you. Rule no 1. If you cat take it, don't dish it out. And deleting someones account because they upset you just makes you look a wimp.

His original handle was Fat Boy. When that got nuked, GW in the Lounge, he came back with Fat Eric. After abusing members that account was nuked too. There was another account of the Fat/Eric/Boy line that surprisingly was nuked. Erudite Eric started off being normal but slowly slipped back into his old tricks and has now been zapped. Watch this space for Erudite Boy.

Oh well one down n to go? I wonder if he's such a wanker in person or is it just his internet persona?

I'm running Linux (Fedora) and hosting different other OSes (ubuntu server, windows). I'm using VirtualBox Seeamless Mode to run only the application I need from Windows, so I never see the OS :)

Should I avoid all you posts or just the ignorant ones?, will you let me know if it's OK or not?

God knows, and I dont care. The point is the link says to get a service pack for the OS and it takes me to an 'upgrade ie' page. Its just a pile of shit.
Its a complete cycle if you need to upgrade make the damn upgrade it just don't work with a semi upgrade go for the full upgrade and give Microsoft a break you obsolete guy.

You don't get it do you? 1) I have vista. 2) I try to upgrade to win7. 3) It tells me 'get SP1 from this link' 4) I put said link into IE. 5) It tells me IE needs upgrading. Now, do you finally get it? And no, I have been writing kernel code for windows for 18 years, I have spent SOOOOO long messing with windows, and it is such frustrating SW to work with. It breaks, irreparably, so easily, and in so many ways.

This is were you went wrong. Windows is fine, especially from a user point of view it is far better than linux, but that´s a useless discussion right know. (les gouts et les couleur ne se dispute pas). But it is a fact that Windows is very lousy in "upgrading", choose a fresh install next time :-D .

I don't call people stupid, idiot, etc. You were the one getting pissy.
Erudite__Eric wrote:

As I explained to you I reported the posts where you were abusive to me because you wouldn't stop after I asked for you to not get personal. Your account was still active after my votes. Become abusive again and I will report again.

I don't resort to calling people stupid because I don't agree with them. If that is dishing it out you are still back in the school yard confronting your demons.

Calling me a wimp is very mature. :rolleyes:
